Atiku’ll end Nigeria’s economic woes—PDP chieftain

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from Imo State, Mr. Basil Ekwem, yesterday said the choice of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as PDP’s presidential candidate for the 2019 general polls would address the problems facing the Nigerian economy.

Ekwem told Vanguard in Owerri that Atiku has better pedigree than all the other aspirants.

He said: “I am overwhelmed by the decision of PDP in choosing Alhaji Atiku. I saw it coming even before the Port Harcourt convention that produced him.

“I most sincerely appreciate PDP for the true internal democracy the party demonstrated across the country during the recent congresses.
